"I've been selected as an early adapter [sic] for Google's upcoming release. You are buying a brand new unopened pair of Google's Project Glass glasses," read the non-spell checked listing, according to The Guardian.

"I will be personally attending and picking up my pair in either Los Angeles, or New York at Google's Project Glass launch event, which will take place some time [sic] after Feburary [sic] 27th."

Non-response from Google

Whether or not yanking the auction was urged by Google remains a mystery, as the Mountain View, California company would only say that "we don't have a comment to share."

However, Google seems to have an interest in keeping Google Glass leak-proof. Earlier this month, the company demoed Google Glass at a conference that reportedly included strict NDAs.

Seller bla7kcat didn't get back to TechRadar on whether or not he or she will relist the Google Glass eBay auction once the wearable unopened head-mounted display is in hand.

Of course, with early adopters willing to pay $15,900 for tech that won't be available to everyone until 2014, there's a good chance that bla7kcat or a copy-bla7kcat will be looking to profit from Google's innovation the first chance they get.
